Hideki Matsui ­— who lived up to his Godzilla moniker in earning the World Series MVP with a six-RBI performance in his final game with the Yankees ­— dons an Angels jersey for the first time yesterday after signing a $6 million, one-year free-agent contract.

“I’m very excited,” Matsui said through a translator. “This is the beginning of a new journey for me. I’d like to do my best in every way I can to bring another world championship to this team since they won in 2002.”

TOUGH FOR MATSUI TO LEAVE

Matsui hit .274 with 28 homers and 90 RBIs last season for the Yankees.

“There was a certain level of attachment there, but this organization had welcomed me with open arms and understood my goals and desires,” said Matsui.
